My first TL memory was watching the tail end of the first PokerStrategy TSL with some friends, then proceeding to join the mafia forum and never look back.

It's weird that I've barely been here a year, but that's still more than the majority of active posters nowadays.

I found TL somewhere during the Golden Age of Protoss (Oct or Nov 08) and registered a short time later. So not exactly old school, although I can remember the Daum player, as well as when Livestreams first started popping up (starcraftwonkman!).

I have the SC2 forums minimized so it's pretty weird for me to be reading blogs or whatever and have random 2k-3k posters I've never seen before show up :O

Just curious if anyone happens to know who is the Oldest member (age) of TL? I know Entropy has me beat by about a year. He's 46 I believe and I'm 45 born in Jan, 1966. Kinda curious just for the sake of triviality. We were both "washed" up when the game started in 1997 already in our 30's haha.

You know what, this thread has finally given me the answer as to WTF should I do for my 3k post????

I know it's been done many times before, and I know it might not even be interesting, but I plan to look back at my old posts in old threads and do a feel good/LOL thing for the community. There are a lot of funny threads i can think of haha...

So much change since the 4 years I started lurking, I want to do this for myself too

It's kind of funny seeing "remember the good old days" posts from people who registered on tl after sc2 was announced :p

Many of us remember that day, and where we were!


I actually discovered Teamliquid a week before the announcement, but I'll admit the announcement was what kept me here.

Then, I grew addicted to watching the BW games. I remember my first VODs I watched were all of the Bisu vs. Savior final games, and the first league I followed was the Daum OSL.

^^^ agreed so much

I guess I'm still pretty young for this site (but almost 3 years!... ok that's not very long T_T) but wow, so much has changed. FakeSteve Power Ranks, Broodwar/Tourneys/Strategy forum not under "Broodwar," no FPL

I guess I did at least join after the advent of TLPD/Liquibet though!

I just logged onto west and joined op tl-west and the bot was still there. Almost made me tear up :p.

I'm not too old but I'm old enough to know how much TL has changed since I joined. I found TL because I finally got a copy of the game (I had always played it when I was smaller at my cousin's house and he wouldn't let me play that often) and wanted to be good at it. SC2 was announced about half a year after I started lurking TL but I really didn't care because my computer wouldn't be able to play it anyways. Got really immersed in TL and used to be able to follow every thread and know most posters. Now I'm short on time so I'm longer a match for the beast that is current day TL.

Daum player is new school

Old school was free mms streams from mbc and ogn, but then they shut them down and the only way to get a stream was through ogn and you had to pay for it and needed a KSSN. I think TL had one that they coveted. Then there was vods from that mr019...whatever numbers guy, then youtube uploading / afreeca / daum etc

I'm far from being an old timer but I did at least start lurking, and eventually registering because of BW and not SC2. I started watching the 2007 Blizzcon and got hooked when I saw the Savior vs Nal_Ra.

Yeah I remember going on TL irc just to wait for a streamer to finally post his mms so I could copy paste it into my VLC player hah! And they'd always ban ppl for asking for an mms hahaha.

threads go way too fast nowadays, there isn't much conversation anymore. memes are sooo annoying and what was once a family has become a BW metropolis where there are constantly thousands of people but nobody knows each other.

there are small pockets of community. but they're like the little packets of powder in a brownie mix you stir by spoon

Sorry for being a hipster but I liked him better when he did his more analytical content instead of the showman like entertainment content.

I still don't feel like an old timer here. It's kind of like real life in that I don't really remember how old I am nor feel like my age describes me particularly well.

If I have to say "I remember" I have to say it about video quality. I remember when you couldn't read any letters or numbers on the videos, and how amazing it was for like the week or two that someone was uploading VODs to stage6 in high quality. Hahaha, stage6...

The TL torrent tracker was my best friend for so long, I tried to get daum player working, but it sucked so much.

I just resorted to torrenting all the videos of proleague every week and watching them in large chunks

I've been here since 2004 and it's amazing to see how much the site has grown since then.

Ah good times trying to get DAUM player working lol, I was successful most of the time however.
